00:00I'm accused of receiving favorable press coverage from a second-rate internet site.
00:06They're not interested in justice. They're interested in getting me out of office.
00:1129 years ago, your son received a Bugs Bunny doll.
00:17So help me God. That's what he has.
00:20I want to share something with you.
00:22Yesterday I did a broadcast.
00:24The interviewer says to me,
00:25Prime Minister, could you tell us what your trial is about?
00:30So I did.
00:31And I was flooded with a deluge of responses,
00:35of people who said, wow, we didn't know.
00:38So I thought I'd let you know too.
00:40I'm accused of receiving favorable press coverage from a second-rate internet site.
00:47In the 250 years of liberal democracy,
00:51no one has been accused of receiving favorable press coverage as a crime.
00:56That's the so-called bribe.
00:57Except when the trial progresses, as it did,
01:01it turns out that I didn't get favorable press coverage.
01:05I got unfavorable press coverage.
01:07I mean, the most hateful, antagonistic, negative press coverage you can imagine in Israel.
01:13And that's not an easy thing to achieve.
01:15So two years ago, the judges called the prosecution and they say, drop the bribery charge.
01:22It doesn't hold.
01:23Just let's end this thing.
01:24Prosecution refused.
01:26Yeah, it's a political trial.
01:27And they're not interested in justice.
01:29They're interested in getting me out of office.
01:32So what's left?
01:34Well, they said this when they cross-examined me.
01:38They said, Prime Minister, 29 years ago, your son received a Bugs Bunny doll.
01:46So help me God.
01:47That's what they ask.
01:48You received a Bugs Bunny doll.
01:51From now on, this trial will be known as the Bugs Bunny trial.
01:55And you also received cigars from a friend.
01:59That's what I'm being charged with.
02:01Now, this is absurd.
02:03And of course, this trial is just going on and on and on.
02:05Six years, six years of bogus investigations on these idiotic charges.
02:11And the trial now has been going on for four years.
02:14And it's expected to go on for another two to three years.
02:18I have to go into trial.
02:20Let's see.
02:20I got to sit down when I tell you this.
02:21Okay.
02:22I have to go three times a week, eight hours per day to discuss this nonsense.
02:29Now, it's funny.
02:30It's comedic.
02:32Yeah, I was a champion debater in my high school.
02:35So it's a farce.
02:37But this farce is causing the country a lot.
02:41There are big things to do.
02:43There are peace treaties to get.
02:45There's AI and other technologies that are amazing that could change Israel,
02:50could change the Middle East, could change the world.
02:52That's what we do best in Israel.
02:55I can't deal with that.
02:56So they asked for a pardon.
02:58I asked for a pardon.
02:59Okay.
03:00And we'll see if it comes out.
03:02But you wanted to know what this trial is about?
03:05This is what this trial is about.
03:08Bugs Bunny and cigars.
03:10It's ridiculous.
